Project Overview
Storage Type: Structural Selective Racking
Location: Spruce Grove
Project Size: 56 bays (12’ wide x 27’ tall)
Industry: EnergyStorage Selective Racking
Storage selective racking is one of the most efficient and commonly used warehouse storage systems. Designed for direct access to each pallet, it allows businesses to optimize space while ensuring easy retrieval of materials. This type of racking is highly versatile and can be customized to accommodate unique industry requirements, such as fire safety regulations, weight capacities, and specialized inventory needs.
For this project, our client needed a storage selective racking system to support their large-scale operations in the energy sector. However, strict fire safety and sprinkler system requirements posed a significant challenge, requiring modifications to the standard racking design.
The Challenge
The client’s facility required a storage selective racking system that would maximize storage space while complying with fire suppression regulations. Without design adjustments, the project risked delays due to permitting issues and safety concerns. Additionally, it was critical to ensure that fire protection elements did not reduce storage capacity or accessibility.
Our Solution
Trimet re-engineered the racking layout to integrate fire baffle sheets on the top level, ensuring the system met all safety requirements. Additionally, our team took charge of the permitting process, working directly with the city to secure approvals and prevent project delays. By carefully balancing compliance with operational efficiency, we delivered a system that met both regulatory and business needs.
The Results
With our customized storage selective racking solution, the client now has a fully compliant and high-efficiency storage system that optimizes warehouse space while adhering to fire safety codes. The seamless integration of fire safety measures ensured that they could maintain high storage capacity while meeting all legal requirements.
At Trimet, we specialize in engineering storage solutions that tackle complex challenges head-on. Whether it’s compliance, structural modifications, or maximizing efficiency, we deliver solutions that work.
